Don't Leave Home Without These!
Posted by Brad Adrian in "ARTICLE" @ 01:00 AM
As far as I'm concerned, there are two things that are absolutely necessary when we Pocket PC afficionados travel (a.k.a. "geeks on the go"): a SCOTTeVEST and a hotel with high-speed Internet access. Apparently, I'm not alone in my thinking (a scary thought in and of itself), because Matt Lake at ComputerUser.com has written a great article on the topic.
In his article, Mark starts off by describing all of the gear he carries in his SCOTTeVEST TEC® Sport Jacket (and he carries WAY more stuff than I do!) and then describes the kinds of hotels he prefers to stay in when he travels. The best part of the article, though, is the reference he gives to a great Web site called GeekTools. This site includes a hotel guide (Geektels) that lists only hotels with high-speed and WiFi connectivity in the guest rooms. The Geektel guide includes over 4,000 hotels throughout the world and has descriptions of the hotels and direct links to their Web sites.
Whether you're planning a trip around the world or around the corner, you MUST read this article first.
